South Mountain Lofts Townhomes

What South Mountain Lofts Townhomes's governing documents say

This is the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&Rs) for South Mountain Lofts Townhomes, a townhome community in Phoenix, AZ. It applies to all owners, residents, and tenants, and establishes the rights and obligations regarding property use, maintenance, and governance.

• Architectural review: All exterior construction or modifications, including landscaping, fences, and paint, require prior written approval from the Design Review Committee. Plans must be submitted with a fee, and the committee has 45 days to respond. Aesthetic decisions are at the committee's sole discretion.
• Use restrictions: All lots are for residential use only. Limited home-based businesses are allowed if they are conducted entirely inside, have no external signs or visibility, generate no customer traffic, and employ only residents. No nuisances, hazardous materials, or outdoor clotheslines visible from neighboring property are permitted.
• Pets: Up to two domestic pets (dogs, cats, birds) may be kept per lot, but must be confined to the owner's lot or leashed when outside. No unreasonable noise or odor is allowed; the Board can order removal of dangerous or nuisance animals.
• Vehicles & parking: Street parking is prohibited (fire lanes). All vehicles must be parked in the garage or driveway; no parking on common area. Commercial vehicles, boats, trailers, and inoperable vehicles may not be stored in visible locations. Vehicle repairs visible from neighboring property are not allowed.
• Leasing & rentals: Leases must be for an initial term of at least one year. No subleasing is allowed. Owners must provide the association with tenant names, lease dates, and emergency contact information at least 10 days before the lease begins. Owners are liable for tenant violations.
• Signs & antennas: No signs are permitted without prior approval, except for developer and association signs. Antennas and satellite dishes require Design Review Committee approval unless prohibited by law, and must still comply with design guidelines.
• Assessments & fees: The association levies regular and special assessments on each lot to cover common expenses, reserves, and maintenance. Failure to pay creates a lien on the property and may result in suspension of common area use rights.
• What this document doesn't cover: This document does not specify exact assessment amounts, pet breed restrictions, or rules regarding specific recreational amenities. Some rules may be further defined in the association's bylaws or design guidelines.
